If you have the ability to desire it, the Universe has the ability to deliver it. You’ve just got to line up with what you want, which means— be as happy as you can be as often as you can be there, and let everything else take care of itself.

 
Esther Hicks
 

You have the ability to control the power of your thoughts. You have the ability to control the power of your mind. You have the ability to make a vibration dominant that matches your desire. You do. And that's all it takes. And that's all any successful person ever has done. It's all anyone who has ever achieved anything that they wanted has ever done. They just wanted it, and talked themselves into believing it.

 
Esther Hicks

When you come to analyze the love of money which was the general impulse to effort in your day, you find that the dread of want and desire of luxury was but one of several motives which the pursuit of money represented; the others, and with many the more influential, being desire of power, of social position, and reputation for ability and success.

 
Edward Bellamy
